Cryptologists in Monterey Preview Navy's Newest Numbered Fleet: "The selected deputy commander of the soon-to-be reconstituted U.S. 10th Fleet/Fleet Cyber Command, addressed more than 70 prospective Navy linguists studying at the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center (DLIFLC) on Dec. 2 at the Presidio of Monterey.
Rear Adm. William E. Leigher spoke to Sailors attending DLIFLC as an 'A' school for the cryptologic technician (interpretive) rating, about the role of the Navy's newest numbered fleet and the effects it will have on future fleet operations and the Navy's cryptological community.
'I have watched cryptology evolve over the last 20 years from a very tight and small field to a community that will lead what the Navy does in the Information Age,' Leigher said. 'We are going to be much more involved in defining the operations that we take part in.'"
